I just recently discovered Expect so that I could automate scp. The Net-SCP wrapper doesn't allow it currently (and probably never will), and Ben Trott hasn't yet created Net::SCP::Perl, though it's on his "to do" list. While I was able to get away with piping 'cat' through a standard ssh connection for plain-text files, that trick ain't gonna cut it with binaries.
